What are Chubascos?
A chubasco is a violent squall with thunder and lightning, encountered during the rainy season along the Pacific coast of Central
America and South America. Out in the open ocean they are commonly known as squalls. Generally you'll see one coming, and you'll have
more than enough time to reduce sail.
Starting in the middle of the summer there will be tropical storm cells passing through up and down
the entire Sea of Cortez. They can hit anywhere, and at any time with wind strengths to 60 knots and more. Local conditions can intensify these windstorms
tremendously. As it gets later into summer the storm cells are a lot more active.
In La Paz these systems build up over the local mountains, and most of the time will come from the east. They are
usually in the 20 to 30 knot range, and you will have plenty of time to take the awnings down and batten down the boat. As you travel
further north into the Sea of Cortez chubascos are more unpredictable, and can be a lot stronger. No matter which anchorage you're in,
and no matter how calm it is when you go to sleep, a chubasco can hit. They usually arrive in the early morning, and from a direction
that might put you on a lee shore.

How much do sailboats costs?
If you are a longtime boat owner, you know that owning a boat is a costly affair.
Making decisions that keep not only the cost of your initial purchase, but also the long-term cost of ownership, well within you
financial means is one of the critical factors of keeping the pleasure in boating. It's very hard to enjoy your boat when it
becomes an unexpected drain on your financial resources. If you're buying your first boat, or are making a considerable step up
in size, the following are some important points that should be carefully considered to help you achieve maximum enjoyment from
your purchase.
Initial Cost: One of the most important considerations is keeping the total cost of your
purchase well within your financial means. One of the considerations often overlooked when purchasing a new boat is what the vessel
will be worth a few years later in the event that you suddenly need to liquidate. We all know that the moment we drive a new car out of
the dealership, it immediately loses 25% or more of its value. And although the immediate depreciation rate of most new boats is not
quite so bad, the owner of a newer vessel is going to take a serious hit in the event that he has to suddenly sell. There's a good
reason why banks want a 20% down payment on financing. One of the worst positions you can be in is to have to liquidate and finding
that your liability is more than your equity. This is especially important if you're purchasing a used vessel. Bank repossessions hit
an all-time high in 1992 and the majority were older rather than newer vessels.

Alain Gautier and Mich. desjoyeaux frolicking in Biscay prior to 1999 TJV. They capsized shortly after the start. There is nothing in offshore sailing that
comes close to these boats. Too scary for most.
